Fun little overview of what stores should look for when selling beer to people. More specifically, teenagers looking to sneak one by when purchasing beer.
...
You got to look for everything! Fake I.D., arguementative patrons, avoiding eye contact, and so on. This was also neat for the observances of convenience store chic when this was made. Although nothing is really mentioned by name, it was sort of wild that you could pick up a pack of weenies for 50 cents! Weeee!

I must say I enjoyed the soundtrack it really sets the mood but the narrator voice its as lame as the rest of the film for some
The film was made to "educate" ... liquor stores clerks what do if a kid try to buy some booze and it also leaves a message for young kids not to drink

This early-70s film is aimed at convenience store employees, discouraging them from selling beer to underage kids and giving tips on how to spot cheaters.
...
This just screams 70s, and if you were a teen during that time, itÃÂÃÂll probably bring back lots of memories. The tips given are extremely basic and the clerks shown are universally dorky, so I bet plenty of clever teens got away with their six-packs back then. It brought back memories for me as a Midwesterner because of all the Midwestern brands shown, such as Falstaff beer and Kitty Clover potato chips, brands that donÃÂÃÂt exist today. Mildly campy and a real blast from the past.

Question: what was wrong with the one guy sitting in the car while his friends went in?
Other than that, could be used as a primer for tricks you can ... try to get a good cold one. That is, if you're one of two in three families that use beer as a beverage.

A pretty cool little film about selling to underage drinkers. My guess, from the fashions and the cars, is that this was made in the mid to late sixties.
...
Friends have told me that many of the same tricks are used by underage kids today, and the film would be a good training film for how to buy beer.
Favorite line: "Many people use beer as a beverage." What the heck else do you use it for? (Please don't tell me. I don't wanna know.)
Although the film is credited to Kansas State University, it has "Centron" written all over it.
Don't get distracted!

If you lived through the 1970s, this film will feel familiar to you. It is clumsily presented, yet it evokes a soothing nostalgia.
